Part of the reason you make yourself and all in your address book
vulnerable can be seen in the header of your message to the list, you've
just broadcast every e-mail you Cc out to the entire web universe.
Using BCC instead in the future would be more prudent.
Someone with other than noble ends can cull this information to spam or
run a scam on the good folks at Merck, Thermadyne, Aleecorp etc.

As the sarge on Hill Street used to say, "Be careful out there."
